Introduction</title><p>Risk management is a major issue for financial companies. Mathematical models are constantly being developed to provide a better understanding of risks and their evolution, with the simplifying assumption of independence between the random variables involved in risk modelling (see, for example, references [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref1">1</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref2">2</xref>] ). However, in certain practical contexts, this assumption is inappropriate and too restrictive. In flood insurance, for example, the occurrence of several floods in a short space of time can generate large amounts of damage, and therefore large claims, due to the accumulation of water. In earthquake insurance, it’s the other way around: in a high-risk zone, the longer the time between two earthquakes, the greater the impact of the second earthquake, due to the accumulation of energy.</p><p>To make up for this shortcoming, many works include in the risk model the dependence between certain dependence between certain random variables, in particular the variables claim amount and inter-claim time, thanks to the Farlie Gumbel Morgenstern copula [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref3">3</xref>] - [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref8">8</xref>] . Although this copula is commonly used in the literature, encounters certain limitations. It fails to model tail dependencies [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref9">9</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref10">10</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref11">11</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref12">12</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref13">13</xref>] .</p><p>To remedy the inadequacy of the Farlie Gumbel Morgenstern copula, while taking into account the reality of insurance companies, we consider in this article, the Compound Poisson risk model in which we integrate not only the dependence between the variables claim amounts and interclaim times via the Spearman copula, with also a strategy of partial payment of dividends to shareholders of constant threshold b.</p><p>In this model, when the surplus process reaches the constant threshold barrier b set, bonuses are partially granted to shareholders at a contant rate θ such that 0 &lt; θ &lt; 1 . Noting by U b ( t ) the surplus process in the presence of the threshold dividend barrier b (with U b ( 0 ) = u ), the model follows the following dynamics:</p><p>d U b ( t ) = { c d t − d S ( t )     i f   U b ( t ) &lt; b ( 1 − θ ) c d t − d S ( t )     i f   U b ( t ) = b (1.1)</p><p>where:</p><p>&#183; U b ( t ) is the surplus process in the presence of a b threshold dividend barrier b (with U b ( 0 ) = u the initial surplus and 0 &lt; u ≤ b );</p><p>&#183; c is the constant rate of premium received by the insurer per unit of time;</p><p>&#183; t b is the first instant when the surplus reaches the horizontal barrier b so t b = b − u c .</p><p>&#183; S ( t ) = ∑ i = 1 N ( t ) X i s the aggregate Poisson loss process composed of:</p><p>➢ { N ( t ) , t ≥ 0 } the total number of claims recorded up to time t, which follows a Poisson process of intensity λ &gt; 0 ; (Note that S ( t ) = 0 if N ( t ) = 0 );</p><p>➢ { X i , i ≥ 1 } a sequence of random representing the individual amounts of claims with common density function f and distribution function F and assumed to have an exponential distribution with parameter β .</p><p>The interclaim times { V i , i ≥ 1 } form a sequence of random variables with exponential law of parameter λ , probability density function k ( t ) = λ t e − λ t and distribution function K ( t ) = 1 − e − λ t .</p><p>The aim of this work is to determine the probability of ultimate ruin in the risk model defined by relations (1.1). The rest of the article is structured as follows: In section 2, we discuss the preliminaries of the risk model defined by the relation (1.1). In Section 3, we study the integro-differential equation satisfied by the Gerber Shiu function in the risk model defined by relation (1.1).</p><p>Section 4 deals with the study of the Laplace transforms of the Gerber Shiu functions and the probability of ultimate ruin in the risk model defined by relation (1.1).</p><p>In section 5, we discuss the probability of ultimate ruin in the risk model defined by relations (1.1).</p></sec><sec id="s2"><title>2. Preliminaries</title><sec id="s2_1"><title>2.1. Ruin measures</title><p>The insurer’s probability of ruin is the probability of ruin occurring either over a finite horizon or over an infinite horizon.

Gerber-Shiu Discounted Penalty Function</title><p>The Gerber-Shiu expected penalty function or Gerber-Shiu function appeared in 1998 in the work of Gerber and Shiu (see [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref1">1</xref>] ). Nowadays, this function is of great interest for research. Its analysis remains a central issue in both insurance and finance, as it is a valuable tool not only in the study of the probability of ruin, but also in the calculation of pension and reinsurance premiums, the pricing of options and so on. It is defined by:</p><p>ϕ ( u ) = E [ e − δ τ w ( U ( τ − ) , | U τ | ) I ( τ &lt; ∞ ) | U ( 0 ) = u ] (2.4)</p><p>where:</p><p>&#183; τ is the instant of failure defined by the relation (2.1);</p><p>&#183; τ<sup>−</sup> is the moment just before ruin;</p><p>&#183; δ is a force of interest;</p><p>&#183; The penalty function w ( x , y ) is a positive function of the surplus just before ruin U ( τ − ) and of the ruin deficit | U τ | , ∀ x , y ≥ 0 ;</p><p>&#183; I is the indicator function which is worth 1 if event A occurs and 0 otherwise.</p></sec><sec id="s2_3"><title>2.3. Dependency Structure</title><p>In 1959, Abe Sklar introduced the copula function, which was not widely recognized by financial experts until the 1990s [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref14">14</xref>] . As a method for studying associated structures of random variables, the copula possesses unique properties, such as the ability to describe the multivariate distribution function using univariate marginal functions and multivariate correlation structure functions. Copulas are mathematical tools used to model the structure of dependence between multiple random variables, regardless of their marginal distributions [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref15">15</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref16">16</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref17">17</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref18">18</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref19">19</xref>] .</p><sec id="s2_3_1"><title>2.3.1. Tail Dependence</title><p>The concept of tail dependence is essential for analysing the asymptotic dependence between two random variables. It allows us to describe the level of dependence at the extremes of the distribution, which makes it an appropriate tool for studying the dependence between strong values (higher tail dependence) and weak values (lower tail dependence). This measure is of great importance for extreme value copulas. There are two tail dependence coefficients which are defined as follows:</p><p>Definition: Let X; Y be two continuous random variables with respective distribution functions F and G. The lower tail dependence coefficient λ L is defined by:</p><p>λ L ( X , Y ) = lim u → 0 + P r ( X ≤ F − 1 ( α ) | Y ≤ G − 1 ( α ) )</p><p>and the upper dependency coefficient λ U is defined by:</p><p>λ U ( X , Y ) = lim u → 0 + P r ( X ≤ F − 1 ( α ) | Y ≤ G − 1 ( α ) )</p><p>These measurements can be defined in terms of a copula C.</p><p>Definition: Let X; Y be two continuous random variables of copula C, then we have</p><p>λ L ( X , Y ) = lim u → 0 + C ( u , u ) u ;</p><p>and</p><p>λ U ( X , Y ) = lim u → 1 − 1 − 2 u + C ( u , u ) 1 − u</p><p>Remark</p><p>- When λ L ∈ ] 0 , 1 ] ; then C has a lower tail dependency.</p><p>- When λ L = 0 ; then C has no lower tail dependency.</p><p>- When λ U ∈ ] 0 , 1 ] ; then C has an upper tail dependency.</p><p>- When λ U = 0 ; then C has no upper tail dependency.</p><p>Many authors [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref20">20</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref21">21</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref22">22</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref23">23</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.130516-ref24">24</xref>] to name but a few, have used the Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern (FGM) copula to define the dependency structure between the size of demand and the delay between requests.

Using formula (3.1), the random vector claims amount and inter-claim times (X, V) has the joint distribution function given by:</p><p>F X , V ( x , t ) = C α ( F X ( x ) , F V ( t ) ) = ( 1 − α ) C I ( F X ( x ) , F V ( t ) ) + α C M ( F X ( x ) , F V ( t ) ) = ( 1 − α ) F I ( x , t ) + α F M ( x , t ) (2.6)</p><p>where: F<sub>X</sub>, F<sub>V</sub> are the respective marginals of the random variables X and V.</p></sec></sec></sec><sec id="s3"><title>3.
